That was a great pilot.

Never read the graphic novel and it's been years since I've seen the movie.

But I think Regina and her husband having white kids ties into black people having more economic power and a higher social standing in the Watchmen world due to getting reparations. So them having white kids would be the equivalent of white people today adopting black kids. I'm interested in how the show handles the issue of race in a world where black people have more power. They already gave a glimpse of it with the white racist dude being pulled over. It's gonna take some GREAT writing for them to successfully pull it off but they're off to a great start.

Having Rorschach inspire a white supremacist group was a brilliant move.

I'm all in for this show. HBO has another one
